Robin,
Is this error '2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query'?
If so, note this is mysql error message, doesn't seem to be related to kexi. 
You could check whether the same problems are visible with other tools like 
MySQL Admnistrator. 

Let us know about your mysql version. Try to find a solution
Lost connections are weird for localhost, right?

Random thoughts:

I've found this: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/gone-away.html

You can also try to temporarily disable your firewall or set it up properly 
for mysql connections. Or connect via local socket (there's such option in 
the 2nd tab of the connection dialog).
